This fifteen minute video offers brief glimpses of the thirty-three extraordinary storytellers featured in the book, "Take Me to the River." For ten years, the mother/daughter interview team of Coke and Joell Hallowell have asked people with deep connections to the San Joaquin, What was your life like along the river? With candor and enthusiasm they answered; fishermen, birders, boaters, homesteaders, immigrants, Native Americans, hunters, farmers, and environmentalists told their tales. The result is a collection of deeply personal accounts of life along the San Joaquin River. Available from Heyday Books. Video by Jacalyn White and Joell Hallowell.
